# Low Stock

> Products currently at or below their reorder level, so you know what to buy next.

**Low Stock** lists every product whose current quantity on hand has dropped to or below its **Reorder Level** (set on the product's [Stock Profile](/retail/stock-profile)) — a ready-made shopping list for your next round of purchasing.

<Tip>
  This report is only as useful as your Reorder Level settings — if a product never shows up here even when you're clearly running low, double-check its Reorder Level on the [Stock Profile](/retail/stock-profile) tab.

## Frequently Asked Questions

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="Does this automatically create a Purchase Order?">
    No — it's a read-only alert list. Use it as a checklist when manually creating your next [Purchase Order](/retail/purchase-orders).
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="A product I know is low isn't showing here — why?">
    Either its Reorder Level is set to `0` (meaning "never alert"), or it doesn't have a Stock Profile / isn't stock-tracked at all.
  </Accordion>
